As we emerge from the unprecedented challenges, as leaders we need to evolve, strengthen our teams and our support network
The impact of design is growing and the demand for design talent is increasing. We see more designers rising to leadership roles. We see management consulting and research firms showcasing the importance of design in business. However, reality shows a contrasting picture as there are many organizations laying off design, product and technology teams. As design leaders we need to join forces and support one another so we can go into the future stronger together, increasing our impact and influence in our organizations.
We need to reflect on ourselves and our teams so we can emerge stronger together leading into the future.
